Viking vs Hunter
Many discussions have happened over these two tanks, and many people have varying opinions. Really, when comparing Viking and Hunter, you are essentially comparing the value of health and speed, respectively. Undoubtedly, each have huge benefits in different games and situations. First, then, we will go to the most common argument for Hunter. The argument, essentially, is this: Hunter's 1.2 extra speed is much better than Viking's 26 extra health. Let's look at this argument. Really, it seems a valid point. As most of you know, however, health is better than speed in drug wars. Here we come upon our main point - Viking is more effective than Hunter in drug wars. Obviously, with the new drug kits, there is a lot more drugging than there was before them. However, this argument effectively proves that Hunter is superior in clan wars, without drugs.
So now you have a choice - do you want an effective drugging tank, or do you want an effective clan war tank? Essentially, this little competition can be simplified down to this. Now, as you know, winning clan wars can be very important for your clan, and if your clan wins clan competitions, you are certain to get a lot more crystals than if you simply won drug wars with Viking. However, it can be argued that since there are a lot more opportunities to take funds than opportunities to win clan competitions, the first is better. However, that is the choice you make. Most richer tankmen choose Hunter, since they use Mammoth for their drug wars. However, poorer or just newer tankmen choose Viking, since it has a much lower rank that it is unlocked at, and a significantly lower price. Even with the lower price and lower rank unlocked, the tank still can be used very effectively, and many tankmen prefer using it since it is the cheap - yet effective - rival to Hunter. If you are tight on crystals, or even if you are looking for the best stuff for the least amount of crystals, Viking is certainly the way to go. Overall, the advantage that Hunter has over Viking is small. With a skilled player, this tank can easily be far more deadly than a Hunter.
